The Drosophila Research Conference

The Drosophila Research Conference is an annual gathering focused on the scientific study of fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster), a key model organism in genetics and biology research. Researchers from around the world share their latest discoveries related to genetics, development, neuroscience, and disease—all using fruit flies to understand fundamental biological processes. The conference promotes collaboration, idea exchange, and the advancement of science, highlighting how studying these tiny insects can lead to insights about human health and genetics. It’s an important forum for scientists to stay current and foster innovation in genetic research.
